From: Cortical ischaemic patterns in term partial-prolonged hypoxic-ischaemic injury—the inter-arterial watershed demonstrated through atrophy, ulegyria and signal change on delayed MRI scans in children with cerebral palsy

a, b Axial (a) and sagittal (b) T2-weighted MRI in a 6-year-old boy who sustained a partial-prolonged hypoxic-ischaemic injury at term gestation, demonstrates extension of injury from the para-falcine portion of the parasagittal zones, inferiorly anteriorly along the Sylvian fissure (involving the peri-Sylvian zone), with involvement of the inferior aspect of the frontal lobe (arrows) and sparing of the superior temporal lobe. There is also ulegyria in the posterior inter-arterial watershed region (asterisks), visible on the axial T2 image (a)
